We had a fantastic trip with TJ Boom. He provided top-quality gear and did a great job teaching me and my 13-year-old some new techniques for catching trout. TJ was patient, knowledgeable, and clearly knows the water well. We caught plenty of trout, including a few nice keepers that turned into excellent fish tacos later that day. Highly recommend booking a trip with TJ if you’re looking for a fun and productive day on the water.
thank yall safe travels
I took my son-in-law and three of his four boys on this trip. We had a fantastic time and the boys all caught fish which was a wonderful experience. That said, I would make certain that you are clear as to payment information. I did pay the $90 reservation fee and expected to pay the rest with a credit card. However, I subsequently learned that our guide could not accept credit cards and we made other arrangements. Aaron was a wonderful guide and he was great with my young grandsons. He was nothing short of OUTSTANDING! I also met TJ and found him to be engaging and gregarious. Aside from the minor "bump in the road", we had a great time. Thank you TJ and Aaron.
thank you! have a great year! hope to see yall soon we accept credit cards and i updated aaron as well were good togo no more bumps in road
We had great time with our fishing guide Captain Gibson on August 4th, 2025. He was personable, friendly, and engaged in conversation. He shared some great fishing stories, area knowledge and history. The weather was great, we caught fish and had a great time on our experience. Would and will definitely recommend TJ Boom Fishing to anyone looking for a good fishing trip. We felt the prices were fair and reasonable and we felt safe and comfortable.
had a great time fishing today

This is our second trip with Captain TJ. We got our trout limit before 7:45 am and went looking for Reds. We threw artificial and caught and released. We ran into a good school of large reds and hooked up for a good drag pulling Red. Back before noon for another successful trip. WE WILL BE BACK!
thanks amigos!!!!
